fuel flow
Along with cleaning the carb, make sure you have a good strong flow of fuel from the fuel line, before the it enters the carburetor. In having to partially block the throat, (basically running partially choked,) that indicates the starving for fuel. When you partially choke a carburetor, this creates more vacuum across the main jet an cases it to pull more fuel from the float bowl.
Now, with that said, as others have pointed out, this is why all the holes in the main jet tube must be clear.
I would double check the float level setting, and confirm good fuel flow to the carburetor.
